       Hey, if you are new here, and need a (temporary?) avatar, I updated my page with all my generators: cats, birds, fenestars and abstracts, have fun! ➡️  https://www.davidrevoy.com/article591/cat-bird-fenestar-abstract-avatar-generators

       @davidrevoy is the backend public? could be useful for default autogenerated avatars on a service and i think selfhosting that part would be cool

       @davidrevoy And I initially thought this is the first NFT post I see on Mastodon ^^

       @kiview Oh no! Sorry about that and thanks for double checking that my work is totally unrelated to any NFTs.  I hate NFTs; I was making free/libre generative arts way before NFTs took advantage of this to make thousands of lazy copies across their "market".I wrote even a rather angry article about it last year when 10 000 NFTs have been stolen with my art : https://www.davidrevoy.com/article864/dream-cats-nfts-don-t-buy-them   You'll read on it my statement about NFTs, and why I can't deal with it philosophically.

       @opal Hey, thanks. On my side I tested (accidentally) the generation of cat open during the first year and 'hotlinkable', but hotlinking and server-side generation of cats totally took all my CPU and bandwidth and I had to start to pay hundreds of Euros if I wanted to provide this service for other; so, I restricted the generation to visitor only and with a timer refresh limit so the server's CPU is happier now. You'll find this project, however, who offer an API for it https://cat-avatars.vercel.app/

       @opal Ah, ok, I misunderstood. yes, the code is here (it doesn't include the 'timer' system I made for my server, but that's just a gif animation of a loading and a page refreshing itself after a delay), source code:  https://framagit.org/Deevad/cat-avatar-generator , and the source art for other generator are packed as zip on the footer of each generator.
